I struggle with BP. With my moods, temperament, and personality, I can be REALLY good at pushing people's buttons but have learned how not to unncessarily in order to create lasting frrendships and romantic relationships through DBT, dialectic behavior therapy. It is an intensive program that takes time but saved me, personally and professionaly with even immediate results in some areas before completing the entire program. I attended with someone with social phobic/schizophrenia and he was helped as well.

The DBT was just as important to me in moving forward as continuing with medication therapy to function and maintain relationships. I cannot go with out it.

It's enjoyable to find the right companion and have romance in your life. I think a lot of us are searching for this too, in this you are not alone. I know when I was isolated it prevented such a relationship from even being possible but taking the steps to get out there started to make things happen. I couldn't have done it w/o the therapy.

I think you are taking the first steps in reaching out at PC for encourgement and support and I applaud you for this.
